WP: Jardin de Miramar: SAC B Catering (02.04.2017)
Huge, lots of greens, lots of places to do a prenup in. They do have a lot of venues although none of them I felt connected with even at Isla Palma, a shaded open air venue that have a pool (which we found out could be rented for swimming) and where the bridal fair was held.
We also saw their Ylang Ylang hall which I think would work even if it's another outdoor venue. I'm not sure if it's the current weather but the temperature is nice and would probably be colder at night. They said they don't have mosquitoes too. It's a simple nipa hut but would probably look magical at night with all the trimmings. Either a rustic or Filipiniana theme would look perfect here.
I am OK with the venue, kind of thought about it especially that the price is affordable (it's even in the 99k package). What didn't sit well with both of us is where the caterer would set up and the location and the actual CR. Nope.
They also have a garden venue but we really don't see ourselves being at the mercy of the elements. Our only bet is the airconditioned venue but aren't allowed to see much because of an event. It's also worthy to mention that the venues are far apart and they have ample parking even if they are fully booked.

Forgoing plated meals, they allow you to get what you prefer at their buffer table. They overcompensated by bringing so much food we even have to skip a few dishes and most of the desserts. Taste is OK although we did have a few synonymous nods.
Their packages are also affordable. They are currently in partnership with Jardin de Miramar but unfortunately none that would fit in our needs (keywords: 200 pax / not Ylang Ylang).

A huge pro that Jardin enjoys is how even at the worst possible way, guests will be able to reach their venue from Antipolo cathedral. We even chose to walk going there and we were able to arrive in one piece. Tricycle makes up for the lack of taxi (streets are not as wide) and not much of a hassle if some of the guests don't have cars.
We didn't bother to come back to the fair (after roaming the grounds) because of the CR. I know it's shallow but I didn't know that this is a non-negotiable requirement that from now on I would look forward to inspecting on our oculars.
